Fay was born in the United Kingdom, and trained at the Royal Ballet’s junior school at White Lodge in Richmond Park, London. She later had two years at the acclaimed Rambert Ballet Academy, where she gained her diploma in dance at the age of 18. A year’s training at the London Studio Centre was followed by a period dancing with Cotswold Dance, a small contemporary dance company. Her husband a secondary school principal, she has subsequently taught dance at a number of dance and private schools in the UK.

During her time as a dancer, Fay performed at Covent Garden, The Royal Albert Hall, Sadler’s Wells, and at the Big Top, where the Royal Ballet do their summer seasons.

Fay advocates a solid classical training for those wishing to go towards contemporary dance, as the classical strength and technique provide the necessary solid grounding. A combination of the two disciplines provides a wide range of choices for furthering a career in dance.
